If I need to leave my job for a short while because of COVID-19, am I covered under the Paid Sick Leave (PSL) law?

For covered service workers and employers with 50 or more employees, PSL will cover certain absences caused by COVID-19. PSL provides up to 40 hours of leave for certain workers per year for the following reasons:

• A service worker's illness, injury or health condition

• The medical diagnosis, care or treatment of a service worker's mental illness or physical illness, injury or health condition

• Preventative medical care for a service worker

• A service worker's child's or spouse's illness, injury or health condition

• The medical diagnosis, care or treatment of a service worker's child's or spouse's mental or physical illness, injury or health condition

• Preventative medical care for a child or spouse of a service worker
